It’s the phrase Strumpet & Pink have on their website, and it’s some of the only text on there that isn’t purely informational. The lingerie itself makes the statements, which is really the only way to give justice to it all.  I always love looking at pieces from Strumpet & Pink – although I obviously appreciate so many different kinds of lingerie, this is one of those exquisite lines that just makes you stop dead in your tracks and let out a little gasp when you see all the perfectly executed buttons, ruffles, ribbons, and chiffon. It reminds me of icing on a cake – perfectly sweet and fluffy, almost too pretty to use!

According to Glamorous Amorous, Strumpet & Pink was founded in 2002 by Lisa Z Morgan and Melanie Probert. They focus on limited-edition handmade knickers, using pure silk, satin, chiffon, and crepe. Morgan and Probert say of their creations,

“Our prime concern; how does a woman actually feel when she wears one of our creations. It is this experience that makes our knickers beautiful. Strumpet & Pink achieve this by embodying the sensibilities of the flower i.e beauty, fragility, sexuality and joy and combining these with the sensuous qualities of pure silk crepe, satin, chiffon and tulle. The knickers are cut on the bias in such a way as to trace and disclose the contours of the female form. Our knickers brim with contradictions; they feel beautiful, sensuous, humorous, naïve, sexual, confident and playful. Each pair holds a discovery…”

The only drawback? The price. You’ll have to save your pennies for these – if you even have to ask, you probably can’t afford it ;-) Prices vary, but you can expect to pay £200 to over £500 for these beauties. So for me, they will remain firmly in my dreams! But if you can spare the cash, you can find a selection at Glamorous Amorous, Catriona MacKechnie, Coco de Mer, and Faire Frou Frou.

I’m sure that was partly because they wanted to keep their clientèle of a certain level, but probably the price tag of their pieces also made online sales a little more of a challenge. Their silk, satin, chiffon and crepe knickers are amongst the most exclusive in the world…Strumpet and Pink Hunting Through The Ruffles

Now, Glamorous Amorous is doing another great stunt by selling four of their limited-edition knickers on their website. You’d think that means we can now all rush down there and grab one? Guess again: these top quality knickers still come at a high price (I’m not saying the price is too high, by the way!) – at least £205 ($365.25).

Strumpet and Pink Rosette Cheeks KnickersWhy are they worth it? The finest silk and ruffles, handmade luxury, decadent details (chiffon, satin, …) and some of the most interesting knicker designs I’ve ever seen. My personal favorite, the Rosette Cheeks Knickers (in pink!), deserve an Oscar.

Hope you enjoy the photo’s. More info can be found both on GA.com and on the Strumpet & Pink website!
